I am very concerned if I would live in this area if i had family. I don’t feel it is 100% safe for kids to walk alone, There are not very good schools in the neighborhood or generally amenities of kids.
Transport
I am generally disappointed of the transport in my area. We have some bus lines that cover a satisfying part of London, however they are very inconvenient, as the traffic is a huge problem in this city. There is no railway in the neighborhood, only DLR which is not convinrent always. The closest rail stations are in Lewisham (2 stops with DLR), St. John’s and new cross (around 20mins walking)
Community
I am not aware about the parking availability as I don’t own a car. The bin collections is adequate, we barely face problems with this. There is a lot of traffic noise, but mostly because of the 2 fire stations that are located quite close, however I am not annoyed by this in my apartment. I love the local people in the neighborhood, they are polite and willing to help if they are asked for information. There are mostly renters living in my Development, and mostly young individuals or young couples. The Development I live in is right next to Deptford Bridge station, it is very safe and I am extremely satisfied by the facilities offered. It is a big improvement for the neighborhood.
Amenities
I live in Deptford Bridge and generally I am very satisfied of the area. However I have several suggestions to improve the neighborhood. There are 2 mini Tesco, one AZDA and one Iceland, however they are not big enough, so I face difficulties in finding all the stuff I need. The closest big super markets are in Lewisham, but I need to use transportation in order to go there. Furthermore, I would really like to have some clothes stores in the neighborhood. Lewisham shopping center is 2 DLR stops far, however I think we should have some famous shops in our area too. Furthermore, I believe that the area could be improved by renovating some old buildings that give the idea that the area is underdeveloped. We have a lot of small shops, for example in Deptford High Street, in very small and old buildings that seem to be ready to collapse and might be dangerous for the workers inside. I would also love more trees and flowers on the roads. Natural environment improves psychology and brings fresh oxygen in the neighborhood. As for pubs and restaurants, even if we have some nice and cute in the area, I think we are lacking restaurants for more formal dinners or special occasions. It is a good think that we have Plenty of restaurants with different cousines and I have to admit most of them are delicious. Last but not least,I strongly believe that increase in the transportation is demanded. There are some bus lines but only DLR close. At Johns and New cross are 20mins walking distance and don’t cover as many destinations as they could. I believe that we should have railway in Deptford bridge as well.
The atmosphere of deptford is full of history and heritage.
The atmosphere of deptford is full of history and heritage. Nice buildings and drawings and always fun when there is market day around. It could be a bit hectic when there are quarrel going around the high street but other than that deptford is best place to live.
Transport
There are three nearby train stations. 1. Deptford Bridge DLR station which can grt to straight to lewisham or bank or canary wharf. 2. Deptford Station: there are national rail trains to london bridge every 10 mins and very convinient. 3. New Cross train station is 10 mins walk as well and from there you can get trains to central london too. Very very convenient place.
Community
Good aspect is that you can get commute to central london easily. There are always alternate options available if one of the trains are late or cancelled. The food options are amazing too and you can get fresh produce from the market as well.
Amenities
Deptford is full of little bars, little nans is where i usually spend my weekends. The vegan restaurant hullabaloo is a hidden gem, the best vegan Indian food in have had. It has got amazing Bollywood vibe to it and located in the heart of deptford high street. There is one more restaurant located just in front of hullaballoo. I usually get spicy Chinese chicken wings from them and it taste so good.
Beautiful house but strong lack of community
If you have children I would recommend this area as it is quite quiet but if you have a dog I would not recommend as there is not a lot of green area for walking the animals
Transport
There are no stations within my immediate vicinity. But there are a few busses it is a limited selection. It would be best to catch a bus then switch later or get off at your desired station
Community
It is quite a boring area not a lot is going on and the community is essentially non-existent. If you travel out a bit further there are a lot of restaurants with a wide variety
Amenities
To be honest there are not a lot of good stores near my house or anything useful. They all require quite a long walk but it’s too short to just take the car which makes it quite frustrating. There are a few small green areas
In need of a bit of regeneration.

I think if the shops along the main road were to redecorate their facades it could serve to regenerate the area.
